And this is why a UK focused news channel is crucial in the mornings.

The morning is the main time it will be UK focused, albeit via a 5 Live simulcast

The Nicky Campbell show though is views, not news - and that has become a problem across broadcast news in recent years.

An extended 'Reporting Scotland' replacing 'The One Show' this evening on BBC One Scotland.

Certainly makes sense to do an extended programme. However, I don’t understand why they don’t use the BBC Scotland channel for displaced network programming in these kinds of events (ie why not put the One Show there instead of the 16th airing of an episode of ‘Fish Town’ from 2019).

Having BBC2 Scotland offered far more flexibility than BBC Scotland seems to in these cases where a Scottish programme warrants being on BBC1 Scotland. Talking of BBC2 presumably they were simulcasting the news channel this morning as usual so viewers could have been pointed there instead.
